GTO: It depends on the dog and on the day.

Whether you're using coyote vocals or prey distress calls, how "hard" the dogs come in will depend on how motivated they are, whether they're motivated by hunger, being horny, or territorial.

Territorial males in January especially will be likely to run hard at an intruder, while a juvenile male or female might be more wary and circle.

Juvenile dogs in the fall will be less likely to check up for distress calls and circle, so they might come in hard. Females will come harder to pup distress during certain times of year, late winter early spring big males will come hard to pup distress.

A hungry dog might come in hard any time of year to distress.

Set up properly, it won't matter which they choose. You want good visibility all around your caller, but definitely FORCE a dog into the open if they want to get downwind.
